or device regarding the article or the ingredients or substances contained therein 
which is false, fraudulent, or misleading in any particular: Provided further.

retary of the Treasury shall adopt a standard of strength for each dye or 
other article which shall conform as nearly as practicable to the commercial 
strength in ordinary use in the United States prior to July 1, 1914; that if a 
dye or other article has been introduced into commercial use since said date 
then the standard of strength for such dye or other article shall conform 
as nearly as practicable to the commercial strength in ordinary use: that if 
a dye or other article was or is ordinarily used in more than one commercial 
strength, then the lowest commercial strength shall be adopted as the stand¬ 
ard of strength for such dye or other article: Provided further, That any 
article or product which is within the terms of paragraph 1. 5, 38, 40. 61, 68, 
84, or 1585, as well as within the terms of paragraph 27. 28, or 1549, shall
